Last week we got a bit overly excited over the prospects of model Angelica Michibata (sister of Jessica) making a comeback (after a nasty scandal involving her husband) with a nude photo book. Sure, she had done semi-nude shoots before but this promised to be a full nude: nipples, breasts, and maybe even bush. The proof lies in the pudding, and so far the indications are good. We have found some more preview images from Michibata's photo book, Angelica, that comes out in early August from Futabasha. The photographer is Hajime Sawatari, a veteran of such nude shoots. The 35-year-old biracial ...

We love a comeback, hence our interest in the apparently nude photo book by Angelica Michibata scheduled for release in August. We also love a jukujo, hence our interest in the comebacks by single mom Hiroko Sato and former Morning Musume Asuka Fukuda. So now there's Asami Kumakiri, whose summer-themed photo book "Bare Self" more or less lives up to the name. It's the first time in 16 years that the 40-year-old idol, a former member of the group Checkicco and (we understand) still unmarried, has released a photo book. It's not nude, and barely qualifies as semi-nude, but Asami does give us ...

We were excited to blog in April about the then-upcoming release of a nude photo book by Asuka Fukuda, an ex-Morning Musume idol, that was the first such hair nude (full frontal) nudity by a member, current or former, of the famous group. Now in her mid-thirties, Fukuda has matured into an alluring older woman (jukujo) who knows exactly what she is doing with her body. Ahead of the hotly anticipated release of her photo book, "PASSIONABLE," on June 19 from Kodansha, more highlights from the shoot have appeared. Check out these images. Fukuda once again shows us she knows ...

Over the weekend here in Tokyo, temperatures climbed close to 30 degrees Celsius -- a reminder that summer is once again just around the corner and, hopefully, an end to this coronavirus pandemic. Another, very welcome reminder came from the Instagram account of actress and model Kyoko Fukada, a long-time favorite of this blog, who posted a video of herself surfing and showing off her stunning, toned and tanned bikini body. Sure, she is wearing bikini bottoms but they have cheekily slipped down to reveal a decent slice of her butt crack. We're not sure when the video was filmed but it was ...

We have long had a crush on Misumi Shiochi (塩地美澄), the curvy jukujo with a gently undulating gravure idol career that emerged from her TV announcer and presenting work (largely for a regional channel in the 2000s). She only released her first photo book in 2016, when she was already in her thirties. Now aged 37, the very comely Shiochi has posed for what is surely her sexiest photo shoot yet -- a series of semi-nude pics, released as a digital photo book, that show off her ravishing and alluring body. In Japanese cup sizes, she is apparently a G-cup but we are not wholly convinced. ...

The former Morning Musume idol Asuka Fukuda has posed for a hair nude (full-frontal nude) shoot. Now 35 years old, Asuka Fukuda's looks have matured from the cute to the alluring, and we like the results very much. She lies down and shows off her naked body including an attractively trimmed bush between her legs. It's been a while since we saw a major nude debut, so this is a bit exciting in our world. Though the former Morning Musume star Maki Goto, for instance, posed for semi-nude shoots and even showed off her naked butt, this is apparently the first fully nude shoot by a ...

We spotted a nice article about Riri Koda over on Nippon.com. Koda is a former adult video performer from the 1990s, who then switched to pinku eiga (pink film, or softcore porn) in 2005. Since 2015, she has performed as an exotic dancer at the few remaining strip clubs in Japan -- there are now just 20 in the country, down from some 300 in the mid-1970s heyday. But interest in the clubs is growing again, including from increasing numbers of female patrons on the circuit. "Each club has its own allure," Koda says. "Some are small, but may have better lighting. I try to take advantage of ...

Thirty-four-year-old actress and model Mami Yamasaki (山崎真実) is the gift that keeps on giving the older she gets. Perhaps aware of her jukujo (MILF) charms or conscious of the ticking clock on her career (come on, this is Japan), the Japanese stunner has gone even sexier and nuder for her latest photo book. In fact, she's totally nude (and paipan) in at least one shot, with only her hands clasped to her bust and her legs tight together (and possibly some digital editing) to preserve her modesty. Her as-yet untitled new photo book (though the preview shoot was called "Last Dance") ...

At the end of last year, we reported on a batch of high-profile photo book releases, including by seiyuu Sumire Uesaka. But as was generously pointed out by an eager reader, another major voice actress also released a photo book that is very worthy of attention: none other than the recently divorced, sexy jukujo Rie Tanaka. Now in her forties and still as hot as ever, Rie has shared some highlights from her photo book (her fourth, by our count), which was released in Japan on December 23rd, 2019. While we have yet to get our hands on an actual copy of her photo book, "Bisai," or, failing ...

Holy moly, is there something in the water right now? Do these things come in waves? Because everyone seems to be getting married! After we blogged about Yuka Kuramochi's marriage to a pro-gamer, three more top gravure stars have announced marriages. As you might expect from ladies whose careers are based on their sexual appeal, they had kept the relationships under wraps. Jukujo queen Mitsu Dan, now 38, has married 39-year-old manga artist Toru Seino. We wonder if they have fun recreating all the nude shoots and BDSM-inspired sex scenes she has done over the course of her career? ...
